Are there fare class restrictions for earning skybonus points? My business is fairly new to the program and I just checked the statement. About half of the flights taken since joining show up on the list but with zero points earned.

You earn on any fare that would normally earn skymiles... so award tickets and pay with miles wouldn't earn.
If there was a change made to the ticket, you have to manually enter the new ticket number or else it won't get tracked.

There was a change on the ticket, so that was the problem. Thanks!

I know that I should keep better track of the account but that would suck up so much time that I don't bother.
It still came thru for me with flying colors.

Yeah, its a big pain to track ticket changes especially when you're talking about multiple other people. You'd think the system would carry over the skybonus number to the new ticket... but no, this is Delta IT we're talking about here.
Note that for *any* reissue where you get a new 006, you have to go and re-enter the new ticket number into the skybonus website.

edit: I resubmitted. Wondering if they reissued my ticket with a different number due to a weather cancellation.

Yes, vouchers from VDB or from leftover ecredit from another flight earn credit.
Yes if you had a cxl due to weather then your ticket was reissued and you'll need that new 006 number from the boarding pass.

I'm just now getting a new small biz off the ground, and have no idea why I didn't register for SkyBonus before now. Are there any signup bonuses out there currently? I'd like to get an account going as my travel picks up for spring/summer, but with the 25k-30k (and even just 10k) bonuses floating around last year, seems dumb to just start at zero.
On the flip side, seems like a waste for these next few flights to not earn points...

When you sign up they have a SkyBonus course you take that gives you 10K points (or maybe 25K points) - can't remember, but it's worth it.

I was on DL.com and saw the SB promo scroll through, which is what reminded me of the whole thing. When I clicked through that, it populated in a promo code DLDCTR12, but I assume that was just to track the clickthrough.
